Tuesday morning a kid on highway 67 lost control, swerved into one semi, who was then hit by another semi, crushing the car into scrap metal and killing the kid. I drove by the accident on my way to work and thought it was Just the two semis, as there was nothing resembling no a car left anywhere. Yeeesh.

Thanks Pen.

From the AP article summarizing the storm:

QuoteThe system was blamed for at least 12 deaths, including a homeless man who burned to death on Long Island as he tried to light cans of cooking fuel and a woman in Oklahoma City who was killed while being pulled behind a truck on a sled that hit a guard rail.

I guess we can update the board now.

How about the guy who was at Diversey Harbor?

This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

What is he doing on the water during a storm? Sounds like he had either the same deathwish or intelligence as the woman in OKC.

I drove by the accident on my way to work and thought it was Just the two semis, as there was nothing resembling  a car left anywhere. Yeeesh.

I understand they just missed Bo Ryan.  No word on why he was on highway 67 instead of U.S. 41.
